WAsH1NaToN, Aug. 29.-Thomas j.

Susie @. Wright of Henrico county, in
state, were married here, though In
order to do so they had great difficulty In
Guiding the watehfulness of the bride,B

Both belong to prominent Virginia fami-
lies. For some months Miss Wright's
parents have kept close watch OF her
fearing h wouid marry young Noble In

ranged to leave Richmond, where she was
visiting with her mother, for the country,
and 1t was planned that as. soon as she
was out OF sightof her mother she should
Join her lover and they should be mar,
ried. Mrs. Wright became suspicious
and followed her daughter TO the train.
Thus foiled, Miss Wright concluded not
to go to her country home. The groom
made up another plan. lie caused a lady
friend to request Miss Wright to go
horseback riding and q short time after
ward they started. Soon after reaching
The suburbs young Noble and a friend
Joined them in q carriage. Riding habits
were hnrriedly exchanged for other dros-
ses and the young people caught a Wash
ingtbn train at q little. Virginia town.
Miss S.Wright's mother began tele-
graphing for her arrest, but when the
train wa searched no one was found at
tired In a riding habit as she was de-
scribed, and they escaped detection.
When they reached the conrt house TO
obtain q license an officer, armed with a
telegram from Miss Wright's father, was
waiting for them. The young mar went
to the police headquarters and explained
Miss Wright was 10 years OF age and
of legal age to do as the pleased. The
police did not modest them further, and
they were married by the Rev. J. w.
Trout. They left for q tour north.

FATAL HORSE EPIDEMIC.
a MystifyinE Disease Among New Jer-
sey Animals.

sey Animals.
NEWARK, N. j., Aug. ga very al
arming epidemic has suddenly appeared
among the horses in this city and ii this
section of the state. A number of deaths
have already occurred. The disease has
been given several names, and according
to the statements made by veterinary
surgeons 1t is difficult to tell what is its
nature. Some surgeons claim that it is
cerebr0 spinal meningitis, and that it ia
very contagious Other well-kncwn
horse doctors are of the opinion that the
disease is nothing more or less than in
fuenza, and that while 1t has appeared
in an epidemic form it is not contagious.
Some claim that the disease is confined
to stables near the canal, or other damp
localities, while others say that horses in
any locality may be attacked by it.
DR.. Hawk, one of the local veterinary
! surgeons, said. '.The disease is certainly
contagious. Any horse may take it ii he
is put ina stable where the disease e1-
lists. 1t is certainly yery foolish to pre-
sumo that the disease is not contagious.
Horses having the disease should be iso-
lated and the stable disinfected. The
disease has just got under way here, and
| may be very disastrous this fall. Forty
eight horses have died of the disease be-
tween Pennington and Whitehouss. I
also understand that the disease has been
very bad about Linden and south of
Elizabeth. There is no doubt that the
disease is cerebro spinal meningitis.
There is a differences of opinion as to the
cause. Some say it is damp air, others
say the bad weather, and others ascribe
it to musty oats. 1t is estimated that
during the past two weeks fifteen or
twenty horses have died in this city from
the disease, and at least as many more
have been sick from 1t and have recov-
cred. AT a great many private stables,
It is denied that the horses there have
been sick, and In consequence it is diff
cult to tell exactly how many cases have
occurred. The disease first attacks the
animals throat, ~paralyzing the epiglotis.
The horse grows quickly weak. and In
two or three days after being first at
tackled generally dies.

A NEW SENATOR.

At last, after weeks of trying, the
West Virginia Legislature has succe eded
in electing a United States Senator to
succeed Camden, Judge Charles ].
Faulkner being the lucky man. The
question of the succession is not, how
ever. settled by this election. When
the Legislature adjourned last winter
without electing, the Governor ap-
pointed Judge Lacas to the place, end
the latter claims that he is entitled to
the Office until the next regular meet
ting of the Assembly in January, 1889
holding that at a called session the
Legislature can only perform such
labor as that for which it was convened
by the governors proclamation. Lucas,
the governors appointee. declares that
he win claim the seat when the Senate
meets next winter, and thus carry the
contest into the Chamber. Faulkner
who was elected by. the Legislature,
seems to have come from good Demo-
cratic stock. his progenitors having
held important positions under the
government. Coming from q line of
statesmen, let us hope that Judge
Faulkner will prove himself the worthy
son of his forefathers.

That was good point which Lawyer
Brown made in court on Thursday
when he suggested that the Gentle jur-
Ors be required TO swear that they
would never, under any circumstances.
in any place, commit the crimes of
adultery and fornication. PoIygamy
and unlawful cohabitation are not the
only otfenSeS set out in the Edmunds-
Tucker act. There are other crimes,
the practicing of which disqualiies
person from sitting as juror. The
Juror, before he can try case, must
promise TO obey the law as to all OF
lenses enumerated therein. If
the Court permits the questioning OF
the juror as TO his intention with
respect to the practices OF polygamy,
il should also require the examination
OF the juror as to his purposes with re-
gard TO other crimes set out in the act.
+ the juror IS required to swear before
high heaven that he viii never
be guilty of polygsmy or unlawful
cohabitation, he should also be required
TO promise under oath, never to be
guilty OF adultery or fornication land the

AND NOW Leopold, the young German
Prince who left US last Sunday, has ex.
cited the indignation Of. the millions OF
American princes, by refusing TO ad-
NIT brakeman to his car, ana thereby
compelling the poor fellow to stand on
the rear platform during pelting rain
storm. leopold, perhaps, does not
understand that in that brakeman
veins courses royal, or what is better in
this country, loyal blood, and that one
of these days the poor, wet and be-
draggled fellow may live in the White
House and rule over nation so big and
grand that as compared with it the
German Empire is a suburban ward.
Somebody should have apprised the
Prince of the situation, in which event
he might have taken the brakeman in
and been sociable with him, shaking
dice for the lager, and sharing his bag
of pretzels with the poor fellow.
